Description

<p>Many partial hand amputees choose cosmetic arms. At present, temporary hand prosthesis training is not common, and specific approaches to partial hand amputation have not been established. In this report, we conducted temporary hand prosthesis training sessions for a partial hand amputees from an early stage, and examined their effectiveness. We made temporary hand prosthesis with material for making hand splints, and performed functional training. As a result, it was possible to reacquire the pinch function and improve the appearance. Partial hand prosthesis with both appearance and functionality was completed. The subject was able to grasp objects by wearing a partial hand prosthesis from the time she received it. From this process, it was suggested that training for partial hand amputation is effective.</p>
